This occurred at approximately 3:30 a.m. on Sunday, October 31st on the corner of Partridge Street and Washington Avenue in Albany. The assailant is reported to be a black male of dark complexion, approximately 26 �29 years of age, 5�9��, 170 lbs., wearing dark clothing. The assailant used strong arm tactics but did not display a weapon. The victim was not raped but sustained minor physical injury. The Albany Police Department is investigating.
